She saw there was a need for a K9 training course in East Texas. According to our news partner KETK, right now, officers have to travel to Dallas at their own expense to train their K9s. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s why Danielle Harrison chose to make one in Rusk County for her project. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I found out we don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have training facility for police K9s in East Texas. So, I decided that I would just make one,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Harrison, Eagle Scout candidate. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Since there isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t anything like this, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to be great especially to fill up training days. We have to do so much training every month and so this will be a good thing to add to our training. Some variety and also fun for the dogs too,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Lucrecia Davidson, K9 officer.<!--more--> Officer Lucrecia Davidson said she heard about it from an East Texas K9 group, and traveled over an hour to show her support. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I just thought it was super cool that it was a female and of course that was like my number one. I want to come out and support any female that is trying to you know reach that next level,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Davidson.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday, Harrison, along with friends and family, put the obstacle course together. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t believe that it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s actually here, and all these people that came out, they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re just so amazing. They really know what they are doing, and it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just great they felt lead to come out here,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Harrison. Even a few K9 pups got to try the new course out. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Every now and then I would doubt this would actually happen, but now I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m just so excited,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Harrison. Harrison\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hope is to give officers a closer place to train, and to earn the rank of Eagle Scout.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSK COUNTY &#8212; Danielle Harrison is working to become an Eagle Scout, but to do that she had to come up with a project.
